Abstract

Background: Liposarcoma (LPS) is a rare malignant tumor, but it is also one of the most common adult soft-tissue sarcomas. Myxoid liposarcoma (MLPS) accounts for 30% of all LPS cases. Diagnosis during pregnancy and the puerperium is very rarely reported, and only a few cases have been reported in the thigh.

Case presentation: We report the case of a 36-year-old female patient on the 11th day of the puerperium after a cesarean section. The patient presented to the gynecology ward owing to the sudden appearance of a tumor in the medial part of her right thigh. The lesion was non-painful, mobile, soft, approximately 20 cm in diameter, and protruded above the level of the rest of the thigh surface. A suspicion of hematoma was raised. The final diagnosis was high-grade MLPS.

Conclusions: An MLPS diagnosis is uncommon in female patients and even rarer during pregnancy. This case represents a novel occurrence, as the first instance in which symptoms manifested during the puerperium. Proper treatment and early detection could improve disease outcomes.

产褥期早期大腿黏液样脂肪肉瘤罕见病例报告及叙述回顾。
背景:脂肉瘤是一种罕见的恶性肿瘤,也是最常见的成人软组织肉瘤之一。粘液样脂肪肉瘤(MLPS)占所有脂多糖病例的30%。在妊娠和产褥期诊断是非常罕见的报告,只有少数病例已报告在大腿。病例介绍:我们报告的情况下,36岁的女性患者在产褥期第11天剖宫产后。患者因右大腿内侧突然出现肿瘤而来到妇科病房。病变无痛,可移动,柔软,直径约20cm,突出于大腿表面其余部分的水平。有血肿的嫌疑。最终诊断为高级别MLPS。结论:MLPS诊断在女性患者中并不常见,在妊娠期更为罕见。本病例为新病例,首次在产褥期出现症状。适当的治疗和早期发现可以改善疾病的预后。
